Luka is a joy to watch. As long as he can play, it shall be a fun game.

Harris’s offense hasn’t been good this year. I don’t think he’d help them at all in this series even if he was available immediately.

I was a huge fan of Harris coming out of the draft. What a strange down year for him.

I was a big Harris fan too and felt he was underrated but these last 3 years he has gotten worse every year.

Is the game going to be on a different channel to start? It looks like Toronto and Brooklyn is going to run over.

Grant and Morris starts in place of MPJ and Craig.

Craig hasn't been great defensively and Morris can put pressure on guards while spacing the floor. Grant on Mitchell probably but Millsap has to step up defensively if it's to be effective.

Nuggets starting Morris/Murray/Grant/Millsap/Jokic. I'm interested to see if Rudy will guard Jokic one-on-one, or if the Jazz will double off of Millsap and force Jokic to give up the ball.

Jazz can still attack Jokic, Murray and Morris when we're on offense.

I don't think we will be aggressive with double teams. We will probably flash when he gets the ball and close out on shooter as we did the last 2 games. Jokic's passing is the real danger.

There is literally no one in the Nuggets' starting lineup who can guard Donovan. Torey Craig was the closest thing they had.

Denver with some good changes to their starting lineup

Grant will guard him, he will probably do a better job than Craig but yes you are right. We still have Conley and Ingles as ballhandlers against sub-par defenders. Malone did not go all in on defense but we were also pretty much leaving Craig alone. Conley will have to stay with Morris.

I believe if it's Jokic vs Gobert for them, we are going to win even if Jokic scores 30 on good numbers as long as he also doesn't kill us with his passing.
